Definitions
- the present invention relates to a connection arrangement and a strip arrangement for electrically connecting an electrified surface element formed with an electrical peripheral contact to an electrical device.
- intelligent glass can be understood as glass panes that can change their appearance through physical influences such as UV radiation, heat or electricity, for example also dimmable glass.
- a special film is laminated between two panes of glass and contacted via electrical contacts that lead out of the glass. Contact to the power source is made by soldering or by a plug-in connection with cables. The cables must be led away from the surface element and laid in a protected manner and connected to a supply/signal source, usually this is done freely wired.
- the invention also relates to less complex applications such as in document DE 103 60 255 A1 shown where the same problem occurs in the automotive sector with a heated window.
- the DE 20 2015 008 064 U1 discloses structural components of an awning arranged transversely to one another.
- An electrical supply line can be laid through one of the structural components to supply an element that is independent of the structural components.
- the particular disadvantage here is that the structural components are contacted only at the respective end regions of the structural components.
- the WO 2012/148103 A1 reveals a window with a color-sensitive solar cell and an electrochromic window.
- the disadvantage here is that only the use of solar cell modules in windows is shown and other possible applications where a view through the window is desired are not taken into account. Due to the orthogonal position of the solar cell to the frame element, there is increased assembly effort. In addition, the overall structure, on the one hand the creation of the solar cell module and on the other hand the additional cabling of the individual modules in a frame, is complex to implement.
- EP 3 219 529 A1 describes a plastic profile with a U-shaped cross section and with an integrated metallic reinforcing element.
- a specialist is usually required for the power supply and the contacting of the surface element.
- Cable routing must be provided in the adjacent components or at least enough mounting space, which influences the design of these components.
- Loose cables make it difficult to assemble individual surface elements, e.g segmented large area, comprising several smaller area elements. Depending on the installation, the cables and contacts are visible, which is of course less visually appealing and more likely to indicate an unfinished solution. It is therefore desirable to eliminate these disadvantages and provide a more suitable solution.
- connection arrangement according to claim 1 and a strip arrangement according to claim 10 are proposed.
- An electrified pane made of intelligent glass or electrochromic glass can be used as a surface element.
- the invention covers both single glazing and multiple glazing.
- the invention is based on the idea of reducing the assembly effort for electrified surface elements by using the highest possible proportion of identical parts, which cost-effectively reduce and simplify the wiring and contacting effort for electrified surface elements.
- the solution according to the invention eliminates the disadvantages mentioned and provides a high level of flexibility, because due to the implementation according to the invention, the strip arrangement - regardless of the position of the peripheral contact - can be used on surface elements with peripheral contacts in a wide variety of positions. A large number of surface elements from different manufacturers can be provided with the same strip arrangement.
- the strip arrangement according to the invention can easily be produced as a strand by extrusion. It is also conceivable to produce a standard length, which the customer can cut and edit themselves (e.g. miter cutting to encompass corners of surface elements). Alternatively, specially shaped connecting elements with electrical conductors can be used to connect strips.
- the conductor is preferably realized using a metal (e.g. stranded wire, wire, etc.).
- a metal e.g. stranded wire, wire, etc.
- the advantage of this variant is that the electrical losses in the conductor are minimal and the conductor can be easily introduced into the plastic frame element during, for example, extrusion of the plastic frame element. This arrangement is inexpensive and can be produced in large quantities with minimal cycle times.
- the conductor can be realized exclusively by means of an electrically conductive second plastic, the electrical resistance of which, due to the presence of electrically conductive plastic additives (e.g. soot, metal particles and the like), is many times lower than the conductivity of a first plastic, by means of which the Plastic frame element can be realized.
- electrically conductive plastic additives e.g. soot, metal particles and the like
- the conductor can also be realized using a combination of the two previously mentioned variants, namely an electrically conductive second plastic and a metal.
- a metallic conductor represents the conductor core, which can be melted or covered by the second plastic at least in sections and at least on the surface element side.
- the production can be carried out by co-extrusion of the first and second plastic with simultaneous introduction of the metallic conductor. This solution is just as advantageous as the two solutions mentioned above.
- first contact elements in particular spring contact elements
- the conductor and/or the contact elements preferably being formed in one piece.
- Conductors and contact elements can therefore be produced easily and inexpensively, for example by means of a metal strip, which is processed according to the invention in such a way that a continuous conductor with contact springs arranged along the conductor results.
- a freely positionable coupling element can be provided along the conductor in order to make the strip configurable.
- Several coupling elements can be provided in conjunction with several mutually insulated conductors to realize several connections that are electrically insulated from one another in order to also cover more complex fields of application.
- electrified surface segments that can be controlled in segments within a single surface element or a wall comprising several surface elements which are connected to one another by means of segmented and/or continuous strip arrangements should be mentioned here.
- the coupling element comprises second contact elements for contacting the conductor and/or the peripheral contact, so that contacting the coupling element with the conductor and/or contacting the coupling element with the peripheral contact can be achieved during the connection production.
- This has the advantage that all electrical components initially remain electrically isolated from one another until the strip arrangement is attached to the surface element.
- This Contact elements are preferably implemented as a piercing contact and/or as a cutting contact. Both variants are suitable for puncturing the conductive and/or non-conductive plastic jacket of the conductor at specific points only when the plastic frame element is arranged on the surface element or for cutting it open locally and transversely to the conductor extension, so that the conductor is only contacted at the desired positions for establishing a connection.
- the circumferential contact particularly in the case of two or more conductors, can be insulated from one or more of the conductors in defined areas. As a result, only selected conductors can be selectively contacted in an electrically conductive manner in a circumscribed area.
- Connecting elements are preferably provided for connecting individual plastic frame elements with electrical conductors.
- the connecting elements also have one or more electrical conductors at the level of the electrical conductors. Depending on the shape of the connecting element, these serve to connect two strips according to the invention in a longitudinal direction or to connect two strips at a 90 ° angle to one another, but other angles are also possible and within the scope of the invention.
- the electrical supply line for powering the strip arrangement can also be located in a connecting element.
- FIG. 1a to 4 show exemplary and preferred variants of the strip arrangement 100 according to the invention in a sectional view.
- the assemblies shown here each include a surface element 105 in the form of an electrified pane (eg electrochromic glass), which is designed with an external flexible ribbon conductor or an electrically conductive film as a peripheral contact 106.
- An electrical device is required (not shown) to control (e.g. data, signals) or to supply energy (e.g. electrical current and/or electrical voltage) to the electrochromic layer.
- the connection between the peripheral contact 106 of the surface element 105 and the device can be advantageously realized.
- a plastic frame element 101 which is preferably U-shaped in cross section, each with two electrical conductors 102 and a surface element 105 with peripheral contact 106 are shown roughly schematically.
- the plastic frame element 101 runs on both sides along the edge of the surface element 105.
- other cross sections are also conceivable, for example an L-shaped cross section.
- at least one contact surface must be provided for arranging the plastic frame element 101 on the edge of the surface element.
- Figure 1a shows, for example, a first strip arrangement 100, in which the opposing conductors 102 are provided on the surface element side and along the plastic frame element 101, so that the conductors 102 automatically and directly come into contact with the peripheral contacts 106 during the arrangement of the plastic frame element 101 on the peripheral section 107 and an electrical Connection between the electrical conductors 102 and the peripheral contacts 106 is established.
- Figure 1a only a left-side contact to the first conductor 102 is indicated, while the right-side conductor 102 is intended for a second peripheral contact 106 (not shown) provided elsewhere.
- Both conductors 102 are enclosed by a conductive plastic 109, which directly adjoins the plastic of the plastic frame element 101 or, for example, is preferably connected to it in a materially bonded manner by means of co-extrusion.
- the plastic frame element 101 can be designed to be resilient, so that the surface element 105 is clamped with its peripheral contacts 106 between the conductors 102 of both frame element legs (eg with a suitably designed U-shape).
- secure contact can also be achieved by gluing the plastic frame element 101 on (eg with L-shape), so that the circumferential contacts 106 are clamped between the conductors 102 and the surface element 105.
- Figure 1b shows a strip arrangement 100 with a surface element 105 in the form of a simple glass pane and a peripheral contact 106 in the form of a conductive film.
- the peripheral contact 106 comprises an electrically insulating layer 113 between the contact points with the electrical conductors 102.
- the plastic frame element 101 has electrical conductors 102 on both sides, which are surrounded by an electrically conductive plastic 109. Incidentally, this previously applies to Figure 1a Said.
- Figure 2a shows, for example, a second strip arrangement 100, in which a plurality of contact elements 108 are preferably provided continuously along two opposing conductors 102, the conductors 102 and the contact elements 108 preferably each being formed in one piece.
- This is preferably an elastic material for the realization of spring contact elements, which automatically rest resiliently on the circumferential contacts 106 during the arrangement of the plastic frame element 101 on the circumferential section 107 and thus establish an electrical connection between the electrical conductors 102 and the circumferential contacts 106.
- Figure 2a only a left-side contact to the first conductor 102 is indicated, while the right-side conductor 102 is intended for a second peripheral contact 106 (not shown) provided elsewhere.
- Both conductors 102 are preferably enclosed at least in sections by the material of the plastic frame element 101, whereas the contact elements 108 protrude from the legs of the plastic frame element 101 and, as shown, are shaped in such a way that they rest resiliently on the peripheral contact 106.
- the Figure 2b shows several conductors 102 arranged one above the other, with the conductors 102 located at the same height lying opposite each other in pairs.
- the area of the peripheral contact 106 which is not intended to come into contact with the conductor 102, is provided with an electrically insulating layer 113.
- a left-side contact to the first conductor 102 is indicated, while the right-side conductor 102 is intended for a second peripheral contact 106 (not shown) provided elsewhere.
- the conductors 102 are preferably at least partially enclosed by the material of the plastic frame element 101, whereas the contact elements 108 protrude from the legs of the plastic frame element 101 and are shaped in such a way that they rest resiliently on the peripheral contact 106.
- Figure 3 shows, for example, a third strip arrangement 100, in which a freely positionable and electrically conductive coupling element 104 is provided along two opposing conductors 102 for indirectly contacting the circumferential contacts 106. This can automatically apply to the peripheral contacts 106 and the conductors 102 during the arrangement of the plastic frame element 101 on the peripheral section 107 and thus establish an electrical connection between the conductors 102 and the peripheral contacts 106.
- Figure 3 only a left-side contact to the first conductor 102 is indicated, while the right-side conductor 102 is intended for a second peripheral contact 106 (not shown) provided elsewhere.
- a cutting contact 103 can be provided in order to contact the plastic jacket 112 of the conductors 102 and/or the conductors 102 at least in sections or to penetrate into the electrical conductors 102 in order to establish the electrical contact.
- a large number of mutually insulated conductors 102 could be contacted independently of one another, for example by means of different cutting depths.
- the plastic frame element 101 can be designed to be stiffer overall along the circumference than on the surface element-side groove leg area 111. This can be achieved by co-extrusion of similar materials with different Shore hardnesses or by co-extrusion of different materials with the same Shore hardness or from a combination of different types of materials, each with different Shore hardness.
- a thermoplastic could be provided and on the groove leg area 111, for example, an elastomer 110 could be provided, for example a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE).
- TPE thermoplastic elastomer
- the elastomer 110 could simultaneously function as a conductor jacket 112 in the area surrounding the conductor 102 and be provided with electrically conductive additives at least in sections.
- Figure 4 shows, for example, a fourth strip arrangement 100, with an electrically conductive coupling element 104 that can be freely positioned along the conductors 102 and is provided along two conductors 102 running parallel and next to one another for indirect contacting of the peripheral contacts 106. During the arrangement of the plastic frame element 101 on the peripheral section 107, this can automatically rest on or penetrate the peripheral contacts 106 and the conductors 102 and thus establish an electrical connection between the conductors 102 and the peripheral contacts 106. In Figure 4 only a left-side contact to the first conductor 102 is indicated, while the right-side conductor 102 is intended for a second peripheral contact 106 (not shown) provided elsewhere.
- a piercing contact 103 can be provided in order to pierce the plastic jacket 112 of the conductors 102 and at least partially penetrate into the electrical conductors 102 and thus establish the electrical contact.
- a large number of mutually insulated conductors 102 could be contacted independently of one another, for example by means of different piercing depths.
- the U-shaped plastic frame element 101 can include a further groove at the bottom of the groove, within which the two conductors 102 run isolated from one another. The groove can be filled with another plastic 110.
- This plastic 110 can be realized by co-extrusion of similar materials with different Shore hardnesses or by co-extrusion of different materials of the same Shore hardness or can be realized from a combination of different materials with different Shore hardnesses.
- This plastic 110 could simultaneously function as a conductor jacket in the area surrounding the conductor 102 and be provided with electrically conductive additives at least in sections.
- a TPE material could be designed to be partially or completely conductive as a conductor jacket 112, so that the electrical contact can be established without the contact elements 103 completely penetrating the conductors 102.
- the plastic frame element 101 can comprise a sealing plastic for sealing purposes, which can be provided on both sides along the upper groove edge of the plastic frame element 101, for example by means of co-extrusion. This protects the contact or arrangement from adverse environmental conditions after the plastic frame element 101 has been mounted on the surface element 105.
- FIGS. 5a and 5b show connecting elements 114 for connecting two plastic strip elements 101 according to the invention with electrical conductors 102 located therein.
- the Figure 5a shows a connection in which two plastic strip elements 101 with electrical conductors 102 located therein are connected to one another at a 90 ° angle to one another by means of a connecting element 114. Electrical conductors 102 are located in the connecting element 114, so that the electrical connection between the plastic strip elements 101 is ensured.
- the Figure 5b shows a longitudinal connection of two plastic strip elements 101 with electrical conductors 102 located therein. This connection is made by two connecting elements 114 with electrical conductors 102 located therein. The two connecting elements 114 in turn are then connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner. Alternatively, the two connecting elements 114 shown for the longitudinal connection of two plastic strip elements 101 can also be combined into an assembly 115 or made in one piece.
Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Verbindungsanordnung und eine Leistenanordnung zur elektrischen Verbindung eines mit einem elektrischen Umfangskontakt ausgebildeten elektrifizierten Flächenelementes mit einer elektrischen Einrichtung.The present invention relates to a connection arrangement and a strip arrangement for electrically connecting an electrified surface element formed with an electrical peripheral contact to an electrical device.
Heute existiert keine einheitliche und verbreitete Lösung zum Kontaktieren von intelligentem Glas bzw. funktionalen Flächenelementen bzw. elektrifizierten Flächenelementen. Unter z.B. intelligentem Glas können Glasscheiben verstanden werden, die durch physikalische Einflussgrößen wie UV-Strahlung, Wärme oder Strom ihr Erscheinungsbild verändern können, bspw. auch dimmbares Glas. Hierbei wird eine spezielle Folie zwischen zwei Glasscheiben laminiert und über elektrische Kontakte, die aus dem Glas herausführen, kontaktiert. Der Kontakt zur Stromquelle erfolgt durch Lötung oder durch eine Steckverbindung mit Kabeln. Die Kabel müssen vom Flächenelement weggeführt werden und geschützt verlegt werden sowie mit einer Versorgung/Signalquelle verbunden werden, in der Regel erfolgt dies frei verdrahtet. Generell bezieht sich die Erfindung aber auch auf weniger komplexe Anwendungen wie in Dokument
Die
Die
Für die Stromversorgung und die Kontaktierung des Flächenelementes wird in der Regel ein Fachmann benötigt. Es muss eine Kabelführung in den angrenzenden Bauteilen vorgesehen werden oder zumindest genügend Montageraum, was die Konstruktion dieser Bauteile beeinflusst. Lose Kabel erschweren die Montage einzelner Flächenelemente bei einer z.B. segmentierten Großfläche, umfassend mehrere kleinere Flächenelemente. Je nach Montage sind die Kabel und Kontakte sichtbar, was natürlich optisch weniger ansprechend ist und eher auf eine unfertige Lösung hindeutet. Es ist daher wünschenswert, diese Nachteile zu beseitigen und eine geeignetere Lösung bereitzustellen.A specialist is usually required for the power supply and the contacting of the surface element. Cable routing must be provided in the adjacent components or at least enough mounting space, which influences the design of these components. Loose cables make it difficult to assemble individual surface elements, e.g segmented large area, comprising several smaller area elements. Depending on the installation, the cables and contacts are visible, which is of course less visually appealing and more likely to indicate an unfinished solution. It is therefore desirable to eliminate these disadvantages and provide a more suitable solution.
Erfindungsgemäß wird eine Verbindungsanordnung gemäß Anspruch 1 und eine Leistenanordnung gemäß Anspruch 10 vorgeschlagen.According to the invention, a connection arrangement according to claim 1 and a strip arrangement according to claim 10 are proposed.
Als Flächenelement kommt eine elektrifizierte Scheibe etwa aus intelligentem Glas oder elektrochromem Glas in Frage. Von der Erfindung sind sowohl Einfachverglasungen als auch Mehrfachverglasungen umfasst.An electrified pane made of intelligent glass or electrochromic glass can be used as a surface element. The invention covers both single glazing and multiple glazing.
Die Erfindung beruht auf der Idee, den Montageaufwand bei elektrifizierten Flächenelementen mittels eines möglichst hohen Anteils von Gleichteilen zu reduzieren, welche den Verdrahtungs- und Kontaktierungsaufwand bei elektrifizierten Flächenelementen kostengünstig reduzieren und vereinfachen.The invention is based on the idea of reducing the assembly effort for electrified surface elements by using the highest possible proportion of identical parts, which cost-effectively reduce and simplify the wiring and contacting effort for electrified surface elements.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung beseitigt die genannten Nachteile und liefert eine hohe Flexibilität, denn aufgrund der erfindungsgemäßen Realisierung ist die Leistenanordnung - unabhängig von der Lage des Umfangskontaktes - an Flächenelementen mit Umfangskontakten an unterschiedlichsten Positionen verwendbar. Eine Vielzahl von Flächenelementen verschiedenster Hersteller können mit ein und derselben Leistenanordnung versehen werden. Die erfindungsgemäße Leistenanordnung kann leicht als Strang mittels Extrusion hergestellt werden. Auch die Herstellung einer Standardlänge ist denkbar, welche der Kunde selbst ablängen und bearbeiten kann (z.B. auf Gehrung schneiden zum Umfassen von Flächenelementecken). Alternativ können speziell geformte Verbindungselemente mit elektrischen Leitern für die Verbindung von Leisten verwendet werden.The solution according to the invention eliminates the disadvantages mentioned and provides a high level of flexibility, because due to the implementation according to the invention, the strip arrangement - regardless of the position of the peripheral contact - can be used on surface elements with peripheral contacts in a wide variety of positions. A large number of surface elements from different manufacturers can be provided with the same strip arrangement. The strip arrangement according to the invention can easily be produced as a strand by extrusion. It is also conceivable to produce a standard length, which the customer can cut and edit themselves (e.g. miter cutting to encompass corners of surface elements). Alternatively, specially shaped connecting elements with electrical conductors can be used to connect strips.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche sowie der nachfolgenden Beschreibung.Advantageous refinements are the subject of the subclaims and the following description.
Bevorzugt ist der Leiter mittels eines Metalls (z.B. Litze, Draht etc.) realisiert. Der Vorteil dieser Variante besteht darin, dass die elektrischen Verluste im Leiter minimal sind und der Leiter während beispielsweise einer Extrusion des Kunststoffrahmenelementes in das Kunststoffrahmenelement leicht einbringbar ist. Diese Anordnung ist preiswert und in großen Stückzahlen bei minimalen Taktzeiten herstellbar.The conductor is preferably realized using a metal (e.g. stranded wire, wire, etc.). The advantage of this variant is that the electrical losses in the conductor are minimal and the conductor can be easily introduced into the plastic frame element during, for example, extrusion of the plastic frame element. This arrangement is inexpensive and can be produced in large quantities with minimal cycle times.
Alternativ kann der Leiter ausschließlich mittels eines elektrisch leitfähigen zweiten Kunststoffes realisiert sein, dessen elektrischer Widerstand aufgrund des Vorhandenseins von elektrisch leitfähigen Kunststoff-Zusatzstoffen (z.B. Ruß, Metallpartikel und dergleichen) um ein Vielfaches geringer ist, als die Leitfähigkeit eines ersten Kunststoffes, mittels dessen das Kunststoffrahmenelement realisiert sein kann. Der Vorteil dieser Variante besteht darin, dass sowohl der Leiter als auch das Rahmenelement mittels Co-Extrusion des ersten und zweiten Kunststoffes preiswert und in großen Stückzahlen bei ebenso geringen Taktzeiten herstellbar ist.Alternatively, the conductor can be realized exclusively by means of an electrically conductive second plastic, the electrical resistance of which, due to the presence of electrically conductive plastic additives (e.g. soot, metal particles and the like), is many times lower than the conductivity of a first plastic, by means of which the Plastic frame element can be realized. The advantage of this variant is that both the conductor and the frame element can be produced inexpensively and in large quantities with equally short cycle times by means of co-extrusion of the first and second plastic.
Weiter alternativ kann der Leiter auch mittels einer Kombination aus den beiden zuvor genannten Varianten realisiert sein, nämlich aus einem elektrisch leitfähigen zweiten Kunststoff und einem Metall. In diesem Falle stellt ein metallischer Leiter den Leiterkern dar, welcher zumindest abschnittsweise und zumindest flächenelementseitig von dem zweiten Kunststoff umschmolzen oder abgedeckt sein kann. Die Herstellung kann mittels Co-Extrusion des ersten und zweiten Kunststoffes bei gleichzeitiger Einbringung des metallischen Leiters erfolgen. Diese Lösung ist ebenso vorteilhaft wie die zuvor genannten beiden Lösungen.As a further alternative, the conductor can also be realized using a combination of the two previously mentioned variants, namely an electrically conductive second plastic and a metal. In this case, a metallic conductor represents the conductor core, which can be melted or covered by the second plastic at least in sections and at least on the surface element side. The production can be carried out by co-extrusion of the first and second plastic with simultaneous introduction of the metallic conductor. This solution is just as advantageous as the two solutions mentioned above.
Bevorzugt sind zur Herstellung der Verbindung eine Vielzahl von ersten Kontaktelementen, insbesondere von Federkontaktelementen, entlang des Leiters vorgesehen, wobei der Leiter und/oder die Kontaktelemente vorzugsweise einstückig ausgebildet sind. Leiter und Kontaktelemente sind somit leicht und preiswert beispielsweise mittels eines Blechstreifens herstellbar, welcher erfindungsgemäß derart bearbeitet wird, so dass ein durchgehender Leiter mit entlang des Leiters angeordneten Kontaktfedern resultiert.To produce the connection, a plurality of first contact elements, in particular spring contact elements, are preferably provided along the conductor, the conductor and/or the contact elements preferably being formed in one piece. Conductors and contact elements can therefore be produced easily and inexpensively, for example by means of a metal strip, which is processed according to the invention in such a way that a continuous conductor with contact springs arranged along the conductor results.
Alternativ zur zuvor genannten Variante kann entlang des Leiters ein frei positionierbares Kupplungselement vorgesehen sein, um die Leiste konfigurierbar zu machen. Mehrere Kupplungselemente können in Verbindung mit mehreren zueinander isolierten Leitern zur Realisierung mehrerer voneinander elektrisch isolierter Verbindungen vorgesehen sein, um auch komplexere Anwendungsfelder abzudecken. Zu nennen sind hier beispielsweise segmentweise ansteuerbare elektrifizierte Flächensegmente innerhalb eines einzigen Flächenelementes oder eine Wand, umfassend mehrere Flächenelemente, welche mittels segmentierter und/oder durchgehender Leistenanordnungen miteinander verbunden sind.As an alternative to the aforementioned variant, a freely positionable coupling element can be provided along the conductor in order to make the strip configurable. Several coupling elements can be provided in conjunction with several mutually insulated conductors to realize several connections that are electrically insulated from one another in order to also cover more complex fields of application. For example, electrified surface segments that can be controlled in segments within a single surface element or a wall comprising several surface elements which are connected to one another by means of segmented and/or continuous strip arrangements should be mentioned here.
Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass das Kupplungselement zweite Kontaktelemente zur Kontaktierung des Leiters und/oder des Umfangkontaktes umfasst, so dass während der Verbindungsherstellung eine Kontaktierung des Kupplungselementes mit dem Leiter und/oder eine Kontaktierung des Kupplungselementes mit dem Umfangskontakt realisierbar ist. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass bis zur Befestigung der Leistenanordnung am Flächenelement alle elektrischen Komponenten zunächst voneinander elektrisch isoliert bleiben. Diese Kontaktelemente sind bevorzugt als Stechkontakt und/oder als Schneidkontakt realisiert. Beide Varianten sind geeignet, den leitenden und/oder nichtleitenden Kunststoffmantel des Leiters erst bei Anordnung des Kunststoffrahmenelementes am Flächenelement punktuell gezielt zu durchstoßen bzw. lokal und quer zur Leitererstreckung aufzuschneiden, so dass der Leiter lediglich an den gewünschten Positionen für eine Verbindungsherstellung kontaktiert wird.It is preferably provided that the coupling element comprises second contact elements for contacting the conductor and/or the peripheral contact, so that contacting the coupling element with the conductor and/or contacting the coupling element with the peripheral contact can be achieved during the connection production. This has the advantage that all electrical components initially remain electrically isolated from one another until the strip arrangement is attached to the surface element. This Contact elements are preferably implemented as a piercing contact and/or as a cutting contact. Both variants are suitable for puncturing the conductive and/or non-conductive plastic jacket of the conductor at specific points only when the plastic frame element is arranged on the surface element or for cutting it open locally and transversely to the conductor extension, so that the conductor is only contacted at the desired positions for establishing a connection.
Es versteht sich, dass die vorstehend genannten Merkmale auch in ihrer Mehrzahl vorhanden sein können, beispielsweise können zwei oder mehr voneinander isolierte Leiter vorgesehen sein und sich entlang des Kunststoffrahmenelementes erstrecken.It goes without saying that the above-mentioned features can also be present in their majority, for example two or more conductors insulated from each other can be provided and extend along the plastic frame element.
Weiterhin kann der Umfangskontakt, insbesondere bei zwei oder mehr Leitern, in definierten Bereichen gegenüber einem oder mehreren der Leiter isoliert sein. Dadurch können in einem umschriebenen Bereich selektiv nur ausgewählte Leiter elektrisch leitend kontaktiert werden.Furthermore, the circumferential contact, particularly in the case of two or more conductors, can be insulated from one or more of the conductors in defined areas. As a result, only selected conductors can be selectively contacted in an electrically conductive manner in a circumscribed area.
Vorzugsweise sind Verbindungselemente zur Verbindung einzelner Kunststoffrahmenelemente mit elektrischen Leitern vorgesehen.Connecting elements are preferably provided for connecting individual plastic frame elements with electrical conductors.
Die Verbindungselemente weisen dabei in Höhe der elektrischen Leiter ebenfalls einen oder mehrere elektrische Leiter auf. Je nach Gestalt des Verbindungselements dienen diese der Verbindung zweier erfindungsgemäßer Leisten in einer Längsrichtung oder zur Verbindung zweier Leisten in einem 90° - Winkel zueinander, andere Winkel sind jedoch auch möglich und im Rahmen der Erfindung. Optional kann sich in einem Verbindungselement auch die elektrische Zuleitung zur Stromversorgung der Leistenanordnung befinden.The connecting elements also have one or more electrical conductors at the level of the electrical conductors. Depending on the shape of the connecting element, these serve to connect two strips according to the invention in a longitudinal direction or to connect two strips at a 90 ° angle to one another, but other angles are also possible and within the scope of the invention. Optionally, the electrical supply line for powering the strip arrangement can also be located in a connecting element.
Es versteht sich auch, dass die vorstehend genannten Merkmale und die nachfolgend noch zu erläuternden Merkmale in den Zeichnungen nicht nur in der jeweils angegebenen Merkmalskombination, sondern auch in anderen, hier nicht explizit genannten Merkmalskombinationen oder in Alleinstellung oder isoliert auftreten können, ohne den Rahmen der Erfindung, wie er durch die beigefügten Ansprüche definiert ist, abzuweichen.It is also understood that the above-mentioned features and the features to be explained below can appear in the drawings not only in the respective combination of features specified, but also in other combinations of features not explicitly mentioned here or in isolation or in isolation, without the scope of the Invention as defined by the appended claims.
Die Erfindung wird anschließend anhand der nachfolgenden Ausführungsbeispiele in den Zeichnungen grob schematisch dargestellt und unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen kurz beschrieben. Identische oder gleichwirkende Merkmale sind mit denselben Bezugszeichen versehen, sofern nichts weiter dazu angegeben ist.The invention is then shown roughly schematically using the following exemplary embodiments in the drawings and briefly described with reference to the drawings.
